I need specific flood event data to write this article. You've provided the regional context (US, Eastern Time, imperial units) but no details about:
- **Which flood event** (location, date, cause)
- **Severity metrics** (rainfall amount, water level rise, affected areas)
- **Current status** (ongoing, developing, forecast)
- **Affected communities** (cities, counties, population)
- **Trigger** (heavy rain, dam release, snowmelt, storm surge, etc.)
Please provide:
1. **Location** (city/county/state)
2. **Date/Time** (when flood occurred or forecast)
3. **Cause** (e.g., "3 inches of rain in 2 hours," "Hurricane aftermath," "snowmelt")
4. **Current conditions** (water levels, road closures, evacuations)
5. **Affected population** (number of people, areas under warning)
Once you supply these details, I will deliver a complete, publication-ready article with emergency preparedness guidance, FAQ, and JSON metadata—formatted exactly per specifications.
